Default Nitrous Shift points

My car should just about be finished with the nitrous install. On my first passes(1/4 mile) with nitrous, what should I shift at? I'll be spraying 100-150 NOS wet kit(plate) with an NOS mini progressive controller. Someone told me I should be shifting at <5k

Where do you shift NA? I back mine down about 800rpms+ from NA.

Somewhere between 5700-5800 should pick you up a bit, it will bring you back down into the peak torque range on the gas. Hope this helps.
